Xeroderma, or dry skin, occurs when the skin loses too much moisture, leading to tightness, flaking, irritation, and even cracking. It can be a temporary issue due to weather changes or a chronic condition caused by aging, genetics, or environmental factors. Dry skin can affect any part of the body, including the face, hands, and legs, and may lead to itchiness or discomfort. Proper hydration and skincare help restore the skin barrier and improve elasticity.
